Hitogoroshi's recent C-blog about gaming setups (I am of course referring to this one got me thinking about revamping/updating my own and sharing it with everyone. Plus i haven't C-blogged about anything in awhile and i thought this might be a good chance to get back into the swing of things. Until my next hiatus at least.

Since obviously i am at work, i guess i will start off with my Work Gaming Setup.

I work as the sole Network Technician/Network Admin for a company of about 700 employees, 100 of which work in the offices. Because of this i get a rather large degree of room when it comes to usage of company resources in off hours.
Chances are, if you playing Video games with me on a weekend. It's here.

Okay, First up.
On my desk, i have three computers.




The first one is a Dell M1710 XPS - Marathon, thats hooked into a monitor/keyboard package with a docking station.
Windows XP Pro
Intel Dual Core 2.0Ghz(X2)
4 GB Ram DDR
120 GB HD
Geforce Go 7900 GS

Games - I've got Wow and Steam installed, i do not play TF2 but i do play Half Life 2, Portal and Source games.

The Second and Third are Dell Vostro 200s, one of them is a presentation computer that isnt working right and I'm in the process of using as a Linux box. The third (far right) is going out to one of our rigs in the next few weeks.
(vostros are great all purpose economic computers for office work.)
Windows XP Pro (Linux dual boot on 1 of them, Ubuntu Distro.)
Intel Dual Core 2.2Ghz(X2)
2 GB Ram DDR
80 GB HD
Geforce something, Dual DVI out on both cards


Next up we have the companies Lecture/Training Room. Roughly 45 Feet X 40 Feet. I borrow it on weekends for mass Lan parties and crazy hijinks.


The projector shown is a Dell 2400MP and supports up to 1080i. We have a Small business license with Dell so all of our equipment is through them.
- On weekends, i drop the screen closer to the floor so i don't put a kink in any necks, hook up the sexbox to the media center and rock out with friends.


Media Center

A couple 19inch lcd monitors, some speakers, and we can lan-party like crazy.

Next Up is the Company Server Room.




3+TB of storage over 5 servers plus a pretty decent network and pretty ok internet speeds = lots and lots of dedicated server hosting and movie torrenting. Yay
